Plot

Renowned archeologist and expert in the occult, Dr. Indiana Jones, is hired by the U.S. Government to find the Ark of the Covenant, which is believed to still hold the ten commandments. Unfortunately, agents of Hitler are also after the Ark. Indy, and his ex-flame Marion, escape from various close scrapes in a quest that takes them from Nepal to Cairo. You're in for thrills as Indiana Jones (Harrison Ford) confronts snakes, Nazis and one astonishing cliffhanger after another--all topped off by awesome sequences involving the discovery and opening of the mystical Ark of the Covenant. It's one of the greatest adventures of all time.

Comments

Classic B film George Lucas/Steven Spileberg's Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark is good action lore, inspired intensly by B films, matinee serials and of course, snakes.In this smashing film, Jones (played by first starring role man Harrison Ford) gets involved in trying to find the Ark of the covenant, and find that getting it (and mixed with nazi meanies) won't be easy.Good entertainment all around that never gets old, even if it has been almost done in by today's action films.Nice job by the star, and by the film-makers involved (the maestros Lucas and Spielberg).A
